Photo Ark: Projections Around the World

Photo Ark is a multiyear National Geographic project with a simple mission: to create portraits of the world’s 12,000 captive species before they disappear—and to inspire millions to care. Joel Sartore's iconic images have been projected onto the side of the United Nations headquarters, the Empire State Building, and St. Peter's Basilica in Vatican City.
